This picture is called Drying up corn near Eutaw, Alabama. It was taken by Dorothea Lange on June 1936. The setting of the photograph in outdoors very rural in the daytime. There are no people, only drying up corn. What catches my eye first is the drooping corn it just adds so much blahhh to the photograph. Basically the only structures are the corn, in an awful condition. The surroundings is just more corn and grass. The corn is spaced pretty eficiently.The tone of this photograph is heavy, negative, and dark.
I do not this photograph but it suffeciently shows what people had to go through during the Great Depression. I think that it must have been even more difficult for farmers because of the expensives of water.
The guestion I would ask the photographer would be, is this your farm, and why did you photograph this.
